taliheels Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 for me the higher the heel the better, and i like my heels minimum of 3.5 inches, this question is purely from a visual point of view and not about comfort or practicality, so what are your min/max heel visual preferences?

Firefox Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Min about 3.5 Max about 5 This would be for a normal woman's foot about size 38-40 I don't like any bigger than 5". I think they look crap actually. The heel starts getting very close to the foot, and the heel top shoots up past the back of the foot. Instead of standing on it, the woman is standing next to it, and the proportions are ruined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shafted Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Whatever heel height produces a vertical instep without a platform. So it really depends on the foot. Shafted, the boots that is!

Meg-ann Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 3.5" being the lowest I like wearing and 6" being the prettiest I can wear! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raccoon Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 I agree with Shafted. This chart shows heels can be too high IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPMindy Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 my min to look at is a little over 3.5 inch (depending on the size of the foot) my max is whatever she can stand without bending her knees. that variess from woman to woman. usually around 5 inch is the upper limits i see. but I've seen a few 6 inchers done so well, you couldn't see physical limitations to her. on my lady, i think 4.5 to 5 inch is ideal for me. I have to see what 5.5. is like, but 6 would be only for picture purposes. RPM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 i like min of 4 inches and a max of 6inches, in my size in smaller sizes it would be different, as long as the proportions are right it looks good. later nhoj62 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve B Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 4 inches minimum, 5.5" maximum. 6-inch heels don't appeal to me. Black 5-inch stilettos - the only way to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawn HH Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 For the minimum...3"---maximum...4". This would be the out-and-about heel for most woman daily. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Labek Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Min about 3.5 Max about 5 This would be for a normal woman's foot about size 38-40 I don't like any bigger than 5". I think they look crap actually. The heel starts getting very close to the foot, and the heel top shoots up past the back of the foot.

dr1819 Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 I would tend to agree with the consensus - a balanced, proportional look is best. Too low, and the heel would look better with a chunk instead of a spike. Too spiky, and it looks slutty. Too high, and Firefox's analysis of a woman standing in front of the heel instead of on it holds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taliheels Posted August 1, 2005 Author Share Posted August 1, 2005 i like my heels "slutty" -its the only way heels should be for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawn HH Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Taliheels:-) If you like your heels "slutty", more power to you. That's the way it should be. Difference is what makes the world go around. Just be yourself. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
